personnel turnover and shortfalls (or undermanning) Explanation: Personnel turnover and shortfalls among the enlisted ranks. You could also say 'undermanning' instead of shortfalls. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 mins (2007-08-28 14:56:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- You could also say 'manning' turnover and shortfalls. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 mins (2007-08-28 14:57:10 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Shortage works too. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 13 mins (2007-08-28 14:59:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The military normally has manning goals or set manning levels. When those goals aren't met they're called 'shortfalls' because they 'fall short' of the set levels or goals. Shortage would also fit. |
